Pier was built around 1070, and was from 1360 to 1754 the seat of the German office in the city and the central hub of the Hanseatic trading in Norway. Hansa Company was however also the Nordic region's first trading company.

All the buildings at Bryggen in Bergen is in private ownership. Foundation Bryggen (established in 1962) owns 35 buildings, and is therefore the owner with the most buildings.
Foundation Bryggen is a dedicated organization that works for the preservation of world heritage, and has a staff of carpenters with special expertise in traditional crafts.

Hello Trond
A nice atmosphere well captured with a good light.
I had seen Bryggen in summer but in wionter it seems to be really nice too and more quiet.
Well done with those nice reflections.
Happy new year

Hello Trond,
This is like a scene from a fairytale! A beautiful blue-hour shot with excellent light management and good composition, with the repetition of the houses and with the reflections. The gentle light is perfect for the scene.
Compliments,
